Preliminary Organizations

While the VSA is comprised of many full fledged organizations, there are also a number of organizations that are just getting off the ground and are recognized by the VSA to help them grow until they can be certified. Below you can find all of the current preliminary organizations and information about what the groups do.

Casual Improv

Casual Improv (CI) is a low-commitment, high-fun, open-to-all improv group for anyone who wants to do improv for fun or practice. We meet once a week and are not necessarily a performing group although we may occasionally put on a showcase for anyone who wants to participate. CI works in both short-form and long-form improv comedy and drama.

Women in STEM

WSV is a community of Vassar students interested in the role of women in science careers and disciplines. We hope to foster an open space for discussing and promoting female presence in male-dominated fields. While this organization is dedicated to women who either want to pursue science careers or support women in science careers, individuals of all gender are welcome. Events will include lectures given by established female scientists and researchers, discussion panels among Vassar students and off-campus conferences.
